Add evals for strict data-con args in worker-functions
This fixes #26722, by adding an eval in a worker for
arguments of strict data constructors, even if the
function body uses them strictly.
See (WIS1) in Note [Which Ids should be strictified]
I took the opportunity to make substantial improvements in the
documentation for call-by-value functions. See especially
Note [CBV Function Ids: overview] in GHC.Types.Id.Info
Note [Which Ids should be CBV candidates?] ditto
Note [EPT enforcement] in GHC.Stg.EnforceEpt
among others.

Improve `interestingArg`
This function analyses a function's argument to see if it is
interesting enough to deserve an inlining discount. Improvements
for
* LitRubbish arguments
* exprIsExpandable arguments
See Note [Interesting arguments] which is substantially rewritten.

compiler: fix regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts unit
This patch fixes a regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts
unit introduced in 05e25647f72bc102061af3f20478aa72bff6ff6e. A simple
revert would fix it, but it's better to implement a proper fix with
comment for better understanding of the underlying problem, see the
added comment for explanation.

Make the implicit-parameter class have representational role
This MR addresses #26737, by making the built-in class IP
have a representational role for its second parameter.
See Note [IP: implicit parameter class] in
ghc-internal:GHC.Internal.Classes.IP
In fact, IP is (unfortunately, currently) exposed by
base:GHC.Base, so we ran a quick CLC proposal to
agree the change:
https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/385
Some (small) compilations get faster because they only need to
load (small) interface file GHC.Internal.Classes.IP.hi,
rather than (large) GHC.Internal.Classes.hi.
Plus a Windows only reduction on T5205 (a known trouble maker
see #26782
